Cognitive Rehabilitation for TBI/Stroke victims

Presenter: Peter C Entwistle, PhD, Anne-Marie Kimbell, PhD, MSEd

Traumatic brain injury and stroke are leading causes of brain injury in the US. Rehabilitation after brain injuries is not only aimed at rehabilitation of physical deficits but is also focused on improving the resulting cognitive deficits. Cognitive rehabilitation includes a range of therapies focused on improving deficits in attention, memory, executive functioning, visual spatial processing, and visual field, and to enhancing functioning and quality of life in patients with deficits in those domains. This webinar will discuss the impact of deficits in the cognitive domains and the contribution of cognitive rehabilitation activities.

Identifying Cognitive Strengths and Weaknesses: Using KABC-II NU

Presenter: Gloria Maccow, PhD, HSP-P

The Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children, Second Edition Normative Update (KABC™-II NU: 2018) maintains the strengths of the KABC-II while providing updated normative information that reflects the changing population of children in the United States. Clinicians who use the KABC-II know that the subtests were designed to minimize verbal instructions and responses to allow for a fair assessment of all examinees, including examinees from diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds. Clinicians especially value the dual-theoretical foundation of the instrument – the Cattell-Horn Carroll (CHC) psychometric model of broad and narrow abilities, and Luria’s neuropsychological theory of processing.

This webinar will review features of the KABC-II that support interpretation from two different but complementary perspectives, and that allow clinicians to identify cognitive strengths and weaknesses.

BASC-3 and ADHD

Presenter: Cecil Reynolds, Ph.D.

This training will focus on development and application of a comprehensive approach to careful diagnosis and specific interventions for ADHD under the BASC-3 models of assessment and intervention. The BASC-3 models focus not just on eligibility, but developing a comprehensive diagnosis and understanding of the student. Differential diagnosis that leads to a process of identification of evidence-based interventions tailored to student needs will be emphasized. Current DSM 5 criteria are emphasized in the diagnostic process but matching to interventions is also considered important. Actuarial approaches will be emphasized but the need to integrate these approaches to individual children will also be stressed and approaches to involving parents in the process will be discussed. A brief discussion of the history of ADHD is given and the controversies surrounding its diagnosis addressed. Comprehensive behaviorally based differential diagnosis is then emphasized, leading to both psychosocial and educational interventions. The need and means of monitoring treatment effectiveness are also addressed.

Creating a Multi-Tiered SSIS SEL Support System that is Responsive to All Students

Presenter: Stephen N. Elliott, PhD

Multi-tiered systems to support students’ development of core social emotional learning (SEL) skills are most effective when assessment and intervention components are integrated to produce frequent data-based feedback to users and system-wide accountability. The SSIS SEL Edition assessments and highly flexible Classwide Intervention Program (CIP) offers users a powerful set of tools that fit within most any multi-tiered support system in both elementary and secondary schools, is culturally responsive, is highly consistent with the CASEL SEL competency framework, and is a S.A.F.E. intervention.

Working Memory and Math, Dybuster, Cogmed

Presenter: Peter Entwistle, PhD

Working memory deficits have frequently been found to correlate with some math difficulties while other deficits also contribute to problems in acquiring math skills. This webinar will consider both working memory deficits and students who have difficulties with the ‘mental number line’. Pearson presently offers two relevant programs for addressing these math difficulties: Cogmed working Memory Training and Dybuster. To provide context for understanding the salience of these programs the webinar will define working memory and the ‘mental number line’. Secondly, we will articulate which math difficulties are correlated with working memory deficits and whether there are any age differences in these trends. As expected Cogmed working memory training has been found to result in improvement in working memory, but also, intriguingly, some studies have found improvements in math. Highlights of these studies will be reviewed. Pearson also offers a program called Dybuster in which students directly train the ‘mental number line’ or number line skills. Aspects of this web-based and game-based mathematical program will also be presented along with relevant research highlights. In short, this webinar will provide you with two innovative ways to address problems with math.

Assessing Cognitive Abilities of ELLs Using WISC-V Spanish

Presenter: Gloria Maccow, PhD & Jarett Lehner

Clinicians who assess cognitive abilities of children from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds encounter unique challenges and complexities. In many cases, they need methods to tease out the impact of non-cognitive factors (e.g., acculturation, socioeconomic status, educational disadvantage, bilingualism) that may affect the child’s performance on cognitive tests.

The Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children–Fifth Edition Spanish (WISC–V Spanish) is a culturally and linguistically valid test of cognitive ability for use with Spanish-speaking children ages 6 through 16 years. In addition to providing information on cognitive abilities including verbal comprehension, visual-spatial, fluid reasoning, working memory, and processing speed, the WISC–V Spanish offers language-environment adjusted scores for the verbal subtests and indexes. The WISC–V Spanish is available in digital format using Pearson’s Q-interactive platform, and in the traditional paper format.

This session will describe the structure of the WISC–V Spanish, features of subtest administration, and interpretation of the language-environment adjusted scores. The session will include a live demonstration of the digital assessment platform.

Working Memory Training and Evidence-Based Interventions for ADHD

Presenter: Peter C Entwistle, PhD, Charles Shinaver, PhD

While this webinar will spend approximately half of the hour on Cogmed as an evidence-based intervention for ADHD it will consider other options as well. However, as is well known by clinicians, researchers and educators there is no way to do an exhaustive review of evidence-based interventions of ADHD in 1 hour or less, let alone 30 minutes or less. What we will be able to provide is some data for your consideration of the relative strengths and weaknesses of the existing evidence thus far. Some time will be spent considering the impact of medication, Cogmed and other innovative approaches to managing ADHD. We consider this topic worthy of several hours of webinars and as such while we expect we may open up more questions than answers we thought this is useful to provide a forum for consideration of this topic.

During this webinar, Dr. Elliott will show how the CIP can be conceptualized as a set of brief (3 to 6 week) interventions that focus on an SEL competency area, such as Social Awareness Skills (3 Skill Units), Self-Management Skills (6 skill units), Relationship Skills (6 skill units) or Responsible Decision Making Skills (5 skill units). Dr. Elliott will also show how the Screening/Progress Monitoring System could be abbreviated as well to only assess the area of interest or to assess a personalized subset of SEL competencies and academic skill. These brief SSIS SEL competency-focused interventions can facilitate Tier 2, Tier 3, and Special Education services for students with identified skill performance or acquisition deficits and need more intensive support to improve their social emotion skills.

Participants are encouraged to familiarize themselves with previous comprehensive SSIS SEL edition webinars on the new SEL assessments and Classwide Intervention Program (CIP) prior to this webinar on Brief Interventions.

100000069=Cogmed Working Memory Training

Cogmed Is Now Easier To Do In Schools

Presenter: Peter C Entwistle, Ph.D. & Charles Shinaver, Ph.D.

Cogmed provides a distinctive amount and quality of empirical evidence for its effectiveness with over 75 peer reviewed published studies, but this training method is now easier to implement in schools. In the last couple of years some large scale school implementations of Cogmed have resulted in our staff developing a number of features that help Cogmed work better in schools. Among those features are the variable protocol (shorter training sessions and fewer days a week of training), fidelity features, built-in generalization measures and Trends reporting which provides schools with the data needed to manage the large scale implantations. Reporting for the district, school, class, and individual student level is now available. Reports include measures of compliance, motivation, and validity. Additionally the Cogmed progress indicator gives schools a measure of generalization to nontrained tasks in the areas of working memory, following instructions and math fluency. The variable protocol allows children to do Cogmed for 25 or 35 minutes a day 3, 4 or 5 days a week. Now Cogmed can fit into school schedules and be managed effectively and efficiently. Attend this webinar to get a grasp of these important changes.

Differentiating Cogmed Effects: ADHD, LD and WM deficits

Presenter: Peter C Entwistle, PhD, Charles Shinaver, PhD

This webinar will shed some light on the effects of Cogmed in the case of comorbidity with ADHD, but moves beyond that to consider children without ADHD those who have other learning concerns. This webinar is intended to further deepen a more nuanced expectation and understanding of the possible effects of Cogmed with a broader range of problems challenging school-aged children. In this webinar the presenting concerns of children will include ADHD, those with learning “disorders” and children with learning “difficulties”. We will consider how the effects of Cogmed might be distinct among these groups. Particular focus will be placed on reviewing the 2016 study by Roording-Ragetlie, et al., titled: “Working Memory Training in children with Neurodevelopmental Disorders”. However, other relevant Cogmed-specific studies will also be considered (Dahlin, 2010 & 2013), Gropper, et al., (2014), as well other salient studies.

How can we help students like Amy who are struggling in Math?

Presenter: Adam Scheller, PhD

As professionals working within the education systems, we have all witnessed the difficulties experienced by struggling learners. Through effective quality education most students are able to acquire a level of knowledge to meet classroom education goals. However, there are a subset of learners for whom this acquisition requires a more significant level of intervention. For those struggling with math, such as our student Amy, this problem persists. During this one-hour webinar, Dr. Scheller will discuss the case of Amy, an elementary school student, who continues to miss math benchmarks, despite receiving a level of instruction that is effective for her peers. This is a case of math learning disability as shown through identification, intervention, and progress monitoring.

The webinar is focused upon this burgeoning area of research with several Cogmed-specific studies. A number of these studies will be covered in some detail. However, first a broader picture of TBI will be considered which includes how working memory capacity has been found to relate to survival, community integration, quality of life, reduced depression and to correlate with executive functions (EF). EF have been found to relate to obtaining competitive employment, occupational outcomes and social integration. Then the Cogmed specific studies will be reviewed which include survivors of stroke, acquired brain injury and traumatic brain injury who completed Cogmed. Finally, we will consider for adults what factors are related to return to work successfully. For children we will consider how TBI’s effects on working memory affect their return to learn in school.

Why Some Students Struggle to Learn: Assessing Memory and Learning

Presenter: Gloria Maccow, PhD

Why do some students seem to remember information immediately after they hear it, but not the following day? And why do some students struggle with mental math? To learn and remember information, individuals begin by encoding the information. They hold the information in short-term memory until a permanent memory trace is created in long-term memory. To show that they have acquired skills and knowledge, they retrieve information from long-term storage.

This webinar will describe the assessment process that will allow us to understand how a weakness in memory can affect a student’s learning. At the end of the webinar, participants will be able to describe

100000069=Cogmed Working Memory Training

ADHD, Cogmed & College?

Presenter: Peter C Entwistle, PhD, Charles Shinaver, PhD

As is well known in the research literature a good number of children who have ADHD grow up to be adults with ADHD. Additionally, there are some who may not continue to meet the criteria for a diagnosis of ADHD, but still struggle with inattention, working memory and executive functions as adults. Although there are a more limited number of Cogmed-specific studies on this population the evidence shows promise. One interesting fact is that the population of college students with ADHD tends to be slightly older than typically developing students. One meta-analysis of Working memory training considering training programs more broadly than Cogmed argues for an “age independence principle: The effects of narrow task paradigm WM training are not dependent on age (at least for the age range 4-71 years)” (Schwaighofer, et al., 2015).

In 2014 there were two Cogmed-specific studies with college aged adults with ADHD (albeit older and with a broader age range than most “college-aged samples”) (Gropper, et a., 2014; Mawjee, et al., 2014). In 2015 two new studies were added to the literature (Liu et al., 2015; Mawjee et al., 2015). The study by Gropper, et al., 2014, focuses upon adults who are ADHD or LD. The Mawjee, et al. (2014), pilot study addressing issues of engagement, motivation and expectancy and was followed up with a larger study by Mawjee et al., in 2015. An unusual study by Liu et al. was published in 2015 that considered EEG data. We will review this data as well as the research and salient conceptual context that will help you to make sense of adult ADHD and how Cogmed might play a role with this population.

100001662=Review360® for Speech Language Pathologists

Case Studies: Progress Monitoring and Intervention with Review360 for SLPs*

Presenter: Tina Eichstadt, MS, CCC-SLP AND Ryan Fast

* It is highly recommended that you watch the Feb 15, 2016 recording (below)--Progress Monitoring and Evidence-Based Intervention with Review360 for SLPs--in advance of this presentation. This earlier webinar gave a tutorial of the Review360 for SLPs product itself. This August webinar takes a clinical focus and assumes familiarity with the product. Thank you!

This course highlights a tool--Review360 for SLPs--that will manage multiple needs: rigorous, measurable goals, evidence-based intervention, progress monitoring, and reporting needs. An integrated tool for these tasks in clinical practice saves time and increases the ability of SLPs to focus on delivering exceptional services and to communicate the value of those services across stakeholder groups.

A case-study approach to continuing education allows professionals to consider both clinical and process issues in service delivery. With the ever-increasing need for a focus on clinical outcomes and describing the value of SLP services, progress monitoring and robust reporting on intervention status grows central to the work of SLPs in schools. Increasing demands of a workload approach to clinical practice works together with outcome-based intervention to support relevant SLP practice patterns.

100000069=Cogmed Working Memory Training

Cogmed Working Memory Training with ADHD and WM Deficits

Presenter: Peter C Entwistle, PhD, Charles Shinaver, PhD

This webinar denotes a more differentiated consideration of reasonable expectations for the effects of Cogmed on children with ADHD and those who are designated to have working memory deficits. While ADHD predominantly inattentive type presents similarly in patients as those with working memory deficits. Those with working memory deficits would still be considered have less severe deficits than those with ADHD.

Drs. Shinaver and Entwistle originally argued for evaluating Cogmed effects in light of consideration of the severity of disorder (considering the different ‘presentations of ADHD’ and arguing that combined ADHD is a more severe disorder than ADHD inattentive type) and comorbidity as well as controlling for medication in the journal article: “Cogmed Working Memory Training: Reviewing the reviews”, published in Applied Neuropsychological Child in 2014. In that article they concluded that there was evidence that Cogmed has significant impact upon visual-spatial and verbal working memory and that these effects generalized to improved sustained attention up to 6 months. In this webinar they will further distinguish between ADHD and working memory deficits.

Additionally, they argued that there were some promising studies for improvements in academic abilities but that more controlled studies were needed before we could make strong and specific claims on this topic. The recently published study: “Predictor and Moderators of Treatment Outcome in Cognitive Training for Children with ADHD” by van der Donk, et al., (2016) tested those arguments empirically. Drs. Shinaver and Entwistle will review this study with some detail along with other salient Cogmed-specific data to update the empirical status of the position they argued in 2014.

The Core Efficacy of Cogmed: Improving Working Memory

Presenter: Peter C Entwistle, PhD, Charles Shinaver, PhD

Cogmed working memory training, as its name implies, is a program for training working memory. We consider improving working memory to be the “core efficacy” of Cogmed. Presently 35 peer reviewed published studies bolster this claim. It is not just the volume of data, but as is often the case in new research endeavors in psychology and education, pilot studies and smaller scale studies usually precede larger, better designed, later confirmation studies. This has been the case with Cogmed and data supporting the conclusion that it improves both visual spatial and working memory.

Articulating the implications of this finding is the focus of this webinar. This will include defining working memory in context of other memory functions. We will briefly distinguish this from improved attention, the second most supported effect of Cogmed. We will also consider data related to the length of time these effects have been found to last. And finally we will consider possible implications of this striking finding that working memory can be improved as it relates to: the decline of working memory over the lifespan, how working memory deficits relate to a number of mental health disorders and the educational implications of working memory.

Data will guide our discussion of these topics and as one might guess this webinar opens up the consideration of several other areas of inquiry, but cannot be exhaustive in a data review of them all. We will simply re-emphasize the critical finding that working memory can be improved and the far-reaching implications of this finding which we expect will pre-occupy researchers, clinicians and educators for decades.

Cogmed: Will Children with ADHD, learning problems and learning disabilities respond differently to Working Memory Training?

Presenter: Peter C. Entwistle, PhD, Charles Shinaver, PhD

This webinar will shed some light on the effects of Cogmed in the case of comorbidity with ADHD, but moves beyond that to consider children without ADHD those who have other learning concerns. This webinar is intended to further deepen a more nuanced expectation and understanding of the possible effects of Cogmed with a broader range of problems challenging school-aged children. In this webinar the presenting concerns of children will include ADHD, those with learning “disorders” and children with learning “difficulties”. We will consider how the effects of Cogmed might be distinct among these groups. Particular focus will be placed on reviewing the 2016 study by Roording-Ragetlie, et al., titled: “Working Memory Training in children with Neurodevelopmental Disorders”. However, other relevant Cogmed-specific studies will also be considered (Dahlin, 2010 & 2013), Gropper, et al., (2014), as well other salient studies.

Case Studies: Progress Monitoring and Intervention with Review360 for SLPs*

Presenter: Tina Eichstadt, MS, CCC-SLP AND Ryan Fast

* It is highly recommended that you watch the Feb 15, 2016 recording (below)--Progress Monitoring and Evidence-Based Intervention with Review360 for SLPs--in advance of this presentation. This earlier webinar gave a tutorial of the Review360 for SLPs product itself. This August webinar takes a clinical focus and assumes familiarity with the product. Thank you!

This course highlights a tool--Review360 for SLPs--that will manage multiple needs: rigorous, measurable goals, evidence-based intervention, progress monitoring, and reporting needs. An integrated tool for these tasks in clinical practice saves time and increases the ability of SLPs to focus on delivering exceptional services and to communicate the value of those services across stakeholder groups.

A case-study approach to continuing education allows professionals to consider both clinical and process issues in service delivery. With the ever-increasing need for a focus on clinical outcomes and describing the value of SLP services, progress monitoring and robust reporting on intervention status grows central to the work of SLPs in schools. Increasing demands of a workload approach to clinical practice works together with outcome-based intervention to support relevant SLP practice patterns.
